Mark Discordia Obituary

Waterford - Mark Edward Discordia, born in 1956, beloved son of Marco and Frances Discordia, sadly passed away Oct. 20, 2024, at his home in Waterford.

Mark attended Ella Grasso Tech and went on to be an exceptional master plumber and HVAC technician, going on to acquire four licenses for his profession. He ran many jobs on his own and also worked as a foreman.

Mark was an excellent self-taught bass player and showed his talent in many bands.

He will be missed by many for his incredible sense of humor, his loving heart and loyalty to those he loved. He adored animals; especially our dog Sam "his best friend," who is now with him in Heaven.

"Hon, you are always in my heart and I will miss all of the love and laughter that we shared." Penny

As teenagers, Mark, Paula K, and I were great friends. He kept us laughing and his mom always welcomed us with open arms. Our fathers were lifelong friends. Mark and his family were wonderful friends and neighbors. I remember the love of his life, Penny, as a quiet red haired girl on the school bus. I was always glad to know that they found one another and shared a good life. I'm sorry that Mark is gone from this world. My condolences, Penny.

Found out that you were spotlighted once in a reader section of Nintendo Power magazine, which I used to read when I was young. You were an early part of gaming history!! Many people still remember your face and all the cool stuff you accomplished, and your confidence in the hobby invigorated everyone.

Sending great love to your family, and up there to you -- the real Super Mario!!
